## About The Project
Vessel is the **C2 (Command & Control) software** for connecting, monitoring, and orchestrating arrays of physical sensors via an intuitive, visual flow-based interface.
This project is to build a "proactive security system". To achieve this, the following three functions are necessary:
1. **Connect** to Physical Device
2. **Detect** Threats
3. **Control** and Respond
This project solves the problems with existing **home security systems**. Current systems fail to protect against burglaries, trespassing, theft—and even war.
So we plan to open-source the technology used in existing defense systems.
This system allows you to analyze video and audio sources with AI/ML technology. And automate actions through Flow-based operations. The Flow provides the flexibility to select multiple AI models and connect them directly to stream sources.
When everything is implemented, individuals will be able to protect themselves from any threats.
> [!NOTE]
> 🚧 This project is under active development. Some features may be unstable or subject to change without notice.

#### Prerequisites
- [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/) & Cargo
- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/) (v18+) and npm
- [gstreamer](https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/)
- [python3.12+](https://www.python.org/)
- [mosquitto (MQTT)](https://mosquitto.org/) (additional)
#### 1. Server Setup
```bash
# 1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/cartesiancs/vessel.git
cd vessel/apps/server
# 2. Copy and configure environment variables
cp .env.example .env
# nano .env (Modify if needed)
# 3. Run database migrations
diesel setup
diesel migration run
# 4. Run the server
cargo run
```
#### 2. Client Setup
```bash
# 1. Install dependencies
npm install
# 2. Run the development server
npm run client
```
## Compile
This command compiles the entire project, including both the server and the client, into a single executable file.
```bash
npm run build
```
The compiled binary, named 'server', will be located in the target/release directory.
> To run the server executable, you must have a .env file in the same directory (target/release).
